Beautiful photos, too bad I can't pick them right from the screen. What a great experience for everyone, we haven't gone strawberry picking before at a local farm. We must do it this year. My oldest also has a knack for finding the mudding spots! ;)

Rutherford's does cost less, and their strawberries are always delicious. They're out Mint Rd. Follow the strawberry signs. The past two years that we have gone to Maple Lane, they had big beautiful strawberries that had no flavor. I didn't want to go there any more, but when we wanted to go last Thursday, Rutherford's was closed. This year the strawberries at Maple Lane were good. Maybe it was a different variety than we picked before. This was the field closest to the house, and previously we picked out farther from the house. But Maple Lane does cost a little more, though I don't know the exact price per pound we paid. So overall, you can't go wrong at Rutherford's. The number there is 982-5891.
